We all have that creative idea or vision we hope to one day become reality
Innovative ideas are abundant. All it takes a little bit of vision, effort, and support to get our passion projects rolling. But sometimes, they are few and far between.
Thankfully, Kickstarter is one such platform dedicated to giving people a chance to shine their ideas and vision to a community of like-minded people so their ideas can be seen, heard, and appreciated.
1. Capsule Gravity: A futuristic efficiency and productivity tool
Capsule Gravity is a 3-in-1 productivity tool, power bank, and accessory. It is appropriately named as 'Capsule Gravity' as it is controlled by a gravity sensor that initiates your countdown timer just as you flip the accessory.
Its countdown and timer features can assist users to be more efficient whether they're working out, studying, cooking or anything, really!
Plus, it's available in three colours and can also function as a swanky-looking accessory with a transparent design.

3. NANO: A self-powered portable gaming monitor
As Malaysians, we love to sapot lokal, and what better way to do that than by promoting this self-powered portable monitor from Armory Labs, a computer service and tech brand based right here in Malaysia.
Their kickstarter project, NANO, is a portable gaming monitor equipped with a 5000mAh battery. But that's not all!
It also packs an intuitive 10-point touch screen that supports swipe, scroll, drag, and pinch gestures so you can make the most out of your gaming or studying.

4. Wicked Egg: An interactive pet toy and treat dispenser
Pet owners know the crushing feeling of leaving our furry pals alone when we have to leave the house. Sometimes they would wait by the door for hours, just waiting... until we get back :'(
Fortunately, with Wicked Lab's interactive toy and treat dispenser, they'll have something to keep themselves entertained while we're away. It works by automatically moving every time your pets interact with it. It also dispenses treats after your pets tilt it down a number of times.
Not only that, it also automatically lights up and creates pre-programmed varied movements and sounds to keep your furbaby happy and entertained.
